Water Module
The water module in the Tygron Platform is intended to simulate the movement of (liquid) water in the project area, and the impact of this movement. The water module is based on (combinations of) different benchmarks and formulas.
The water module is implemented as different grid based water overlays, where each overlay is tuned for specific analyses, insights, use cases and results.
| Rainfall Overlay | provides insight into the water stress and impact caused by (excessive) rainfall |
| Flooding Overlay | provides insight into water stress and impact caused by breaches in levees or other sources causing excessive water inflow |
| Groundwater Overlay | provides insight into long-term processes of water flow both on the surface and underground |
Attributes
The water module calculations depend on a number of parameters, which are available as attributes of the water overlay. For more information about these attributes, see also: Water Module Attributes.
Water Module Theory
The Water Module performs a large number of calculations to form a complete hydrological simulation. For more information about the calculations, formulas and benchmarks used, see also: Water Module Theory
